Police Professional 25/5/2023 News The analysis of excessive disciplinary action and the effect of disciplinary rationalization policy: an empirical analysis of the results of disciplinary appeals reviews for police officers In this paper, we conduct an empirical analysis to examine whether police officers are disciplined more severely than other government officers. We used data on disciplinary actions in cases of bribery, which had been extracted from the casebook on disciplinary appeals reviews (2004–2018) published by the Appeals Commission of the Republic of Korea. The results of the ordinal logistic regression for the entire period (2004–2018) show that disciplinary actions imposed by the police agency were more severe than other government agencies. However, in a period-separated analysis of police disciplinary rationalisation policies in 2011, the differences in the level of disciplinary actions between the police and other agencies were only significant in the former period (2004–2011). The difference was not significant in the latter (2012–2018). This implies that the police agency imposed more severe disciplinary actions than other government agencies in the past. However, the latter period analysis implies that the disciplinary tendency of the police changed due to the effectiveness of the disciplinary rationalisation policy of the South Korean police agency. Policing and Society - Subscription at source 25/5/2023 Research article Revisiting the demeanour effect: a video-observational analysis of encounters between law enforcement officers and citizens in Amsterdam We investigate the ‘demeanour hypothesis’, stating that police officers are more likely to arrest and use force against citizens who display a ‘bad attitude’. We observed 78 encounters captured on surveillance cameras in the city of Amsterdam. Video material allowed us to code specific behaviours (‘citizen pointed at officer’) instead of the more ambiguous interpretation of behaviour (‘citizen was disrespectful’) used in prior studies. We employ two regression analyses to estimate the extent to which different types of citizens’ behaviour – ‘bad attitude’, non-compliance, and aggression and crime – relate to physical coercive behaviour by law enforcement agents. After controlling for non-compliant, aggressive and criminal behaviours, as well as situational and individual features, citizens’ ‘bad attitude’ behaviours remain associated with physical coercion. However, our data also shows that the effects of aggressive and criminal behaviours are far stronger than that of ‘bad attitude’ behaviours. Yet, there is an observable ‘demeanour effect’ in our sample. Conceptually, we provide a more thorough behavioural description of what a ‘bad attitude’ looks like. Practically, our findings can be used in training, such as scenario or VR training, in order to raise officers’ awareness of citizens’ behaviours, and may assist them to prevent escalation in their encounters with the public. Policing and Society 25/5/2023 Research article Meeting PwC Middle East’s Policing and Public Safety Lead, Andrew Morley Andrew Morley has an impressive career that includes his playing a leading role in formulating policing policy for central Government in the United Kingdom; leading the London Criminal Justice Partnership as their Chief Executive; and, more recently, as PwC Middle East's Policing and Public Safety Lead. In a wide-ranging interview recorded earlier this year with PolicingTV's Founder, Bernard Rix, Andrew describes his transition from policymaker to advisor; from public to private sector; and from a focus on the United Kingdom to working across the Gulf and indeed globally. Andrew examines the challenge of transnational crime, and speaks about the work that, for example, Dubai Police has led in tackling this area; then the related and growing challenge of online crime; and the challenge of maintaining societal trust (and, in some areas, rebuilding trust) in policing. On victims, Andrew speaks movingly about the work on child protection and children's rights that PwC has undertaken in the Sharjah Emirate in the United Arab Emirates. Andrew and Bernard's conversation also covers technology and the Dubai Police "Smart Police Station"; artificial intelligence; drones and "counter drones"; plus the use, management and classification of data.

The TribuneMag 24/5/2023 Feature, Opinion Operation Sceptre – early intervention, education and enforcement “When considering taking on the national policing knife crime lead role, I reflected on my years in law enforcement. There is no doubt that knife crime has become more prevalent over the years as more ‘extreme’ knives have become so readily available and a weapon of choice for too many young people. For some they are used to protect their criminal commodities, others may use them to threaten, intimidate or harm and for some it is a misguided view that a knife will protect them when they don’t feel safe in their local area.

BBC 24/5/2023 News When police need policing, the top cop must step up AUSTRALIA: There would be few more incomprehensible acts beyond that of a great-grandmother living with dementia, and weighing just 45 kilograms, being subjected to a 50,000-volt electric shock to stop her in her tracks. But that is what happened to 95-year-old nursing home resident Clare Nowland, who was Tasered in the early hours of the morning as she stood with her walker, holding a knife. The senior constable who allegedly fired the Taser was charged on Wednesday evening with recklessly causing grievous bodily harm, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and common assault.
